Whether it fits the submission or not, it's a fabulous capture of a gorgeous bird.
Quite the moment of good fortune. Enjoy it. |

This is not really a portrait.
I think the subject is just a part of the overal image rather than dominating it.
Here is the wikipedia definition:
A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face and its expression is predominant. The intent is to display the likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person. For this reason, in photography a portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the painter or photographer, in order to most successfully engage the subject with the viewer. |

I understand the sentiment, but 'Pet' implies a domestic animal or bird. |

The tree is very distracting. If you shot large enough, you could crop most of it out, just leaving the face of the eagle. |
